They talked about the hard work, perseverance and resilience shown by Paralympian swimmer Yip Pin Xiu, who won two gold medals for Singapore. They also talked about the efforts of Olympian swimmer Joseph Schooling and the disappointment he must have felt at not winning a medal after having trained hard for his events.
